MariaDB - Archive Engine Missing

I've just installed MariaDB 5.5 on Windows2k8 64bit, straight forward default install using the windows MSI installer.

If I do a SHOW ENGINES the ARCHIVE engine is missing. How can I include the ARCHIVE storage engine during or post install?

We recently had the same problem and could solve it with the following procedure. First check the lib/plugin/ folder for ha_archive.dll. This is the engine driver.

Now you can activate the plugin by adding the following line to your my.ini:

plugin-load=ha_archive

(If you don't have a my.ini, create it according to the example *.ini files in the root folder)

Don't forget to restart your mariadb instance.
